Influence of dietary L-arginine supplementation to sows during late gestation on sow and litter performance during lactation
L-arginine supplementation during late gestation does not affect piglet performance and milk yield.
Effects of dietary benzoic acid and sodium-benzoate on performance, nitrogen and mineral balance and hippuric acid excretion of piglets
Benzoic acid is more effective than sodium-benzoate in piglet’s performance and metabolism.
Effect of different dietary fat sources at the end of gestation on the performance of sows and their offspring
The results show the importance of the FA composition in colostrum on the growth of piglets.
Zinc oxide–montmorillonite hybrid influences diarrhea, intestinal mucosal integrity, and digestive enzyme activity in weaned pigs
The use of dietary Zn in montmorillonite hybrids for piglet diets improve performance and digestive parameters.
Supplementing sows with a zootechnical feed additive decreases fecal shedding of bacteria and improves calostral immunoglobulin concentrations and litter performance
The use of a zootechnical feed additive during gestation may reduce microbial pathogens in feces and improve IGA concentration in calostrum.
Perinatal flavour learning and adaptation to being weaned: all pigs needs is smell
Perinatal flavour learning may reduce piglets’ stress from birth onwards.
Oral immunization of weaned piglets with tobacco seeds expressing antigenic proteins of VTEC
Oral administration of recombinant tobacco seeds expressing antigenic proteins against VTEC strains can induce an increase of mucosal antibodies.
Quinoa hull meal affects on piglet performance and intestinal epithelial physiology
Saponin-enriched diets may affect intestinal permeability but this not alter piglet performance.
Effects of dietary seaweed extract supplementation in sows and post-weaned pigs on performance, intestinal morphology, intestinal microflora and immune status
SWE supplementation post-weaning provides a dietary means to improve gut health and to enhance growth performance in starter pigs.
Plasma protein profiles of neonatal pigs before and after suckling
The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes in plasma protein profiles of neonatal piglets before and after suckling, in order to characterize the gastrointestinal absorption of colostral proteins into the neonatal bloodstream.
Dietary supplementation with L-Arginine partially counteracts serum metabonome induced by weaning stress in piglets
Arginine has a key role in metabolism regulation in weanling pigs.
Effect of feeding 25-hydroxycholecalciferol on prenatal porcine skeletal muscle development
Feeding 25OHD3 to gilts may have a positive impact on the red meat yield of their offspring.
Dietary addition of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG impairs the health of Escherichia coli F4 challenged piglets
Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG does not ameliorate the negative effects caused by E. coli F4-in challenged piglets.
Nutritional intervention during gestation alters growth and body composition of pig offspring
Increasing feeding allowance to gestating sows does not provide major benefits to the offspring.
New neonatal porcine diarrhoea in Denmark - a clinical description
The aim of this study was to make a clinical description of NNPD and to establish which pathogens are associated with NNPD.
